Postmodern flannel-board

Levi loves telling the preschoolers flannelboard stories at nursery duty on Wednesdays. Sometimes, however, the stories melt together. Like todays:
Levi begins, "There was a man named Daniel who was walking along the road one day. He came across his Uncle and they talked. Suddenly, three wisemen were there wondering what he was about to do next. He was told his brothers were jealous because his dad loved HIM the best and gave him a beautiful colorful coat. He then was told that he was going to the lions den because he was worshipping God and he was only supposed to worship the king of the land." (Up goes the den and Daniel is thrown in it-in the meantime a giane Goliath is in the background and one of the little boys walked up and laid him down, defeated)Levi looks at the crowd puzzled and then says, "I cannot find my lions so it will actually be evil birds that were thrown in the den overnight with Daniel. In the morning Daniel wakes up and amazingly the good Lord protected him and didn't allow those birds to gouge his eyes out." The End

Rwar!!!

I'm not even sure I loved the movie Public Enemies? I am sure that I loved this quote by John Dilinger though, "I like baseball, movies, good clothes, whiskey, fast cars... and you. What else you need to know?"
Say no more.

New Favorite!

Misfit

I just wanna state that I am so sick of companies discontinuing the things I love most. Why?! I know there is a place out there somewhere like "The Island of Misfit Toys." I'll call it, "The Island of Misfit Products." Let's go.

Make-up

We were gone on vacation recently and when we got back Liberty had to go to dance twice in a row. She wondered why and I told her it was because she had to do a make-up day. She was really excited and told Jace, "Jace, I get to go to ballet again today and I get to wear make-up!!"

Jokes

Levi was telling jokes the other day at a Preschool group I watch. What a riot! Like they get ANY of the jokes. Whenever he's done he's like, "Do ya get it? Do ya get it?!" No, of course not. This was my favorite one he started out, "There was a blondehead, a redhead, and a bluehead...."

Barely ever

Jace wants me to quit posting private things about him on this blog. I told him it's not very often I talk about him. I'm just curious about how often Jace is keeping up with blogging? Jace, please leave a comment next time. :o)

More terror

Levi was going to bed the other night and sat up perplexed, again. I said, "What is it?" He said, "I just am so worried that Rachel is gonna choose someone else." Might I remind you, he thinks they are a couple, and this 10 year old beauty doesn't even know it. "You don't need to worry Levi because God will work it all out." He said, "I just know that either she's gonna dump me or I'm gonna dump her. It happens to everybody." Awww! Almost 8 years old and can already see the discontentment in relationships. Adorable!

A break

Libs was packin her bag this morning to go to her friend Trista's. She was very excited and said to me, "I'll be back sometime tomorrow. You can have a "bweak" fwom me." Precious.

Awesome!
